Calm down

I think Barleybannocks will be topic banned. If you continue to react as vigorously as you have to date, you will be next. I suggest a more moderate and cautious approach. Guy (Help!) 00:44, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

In regards to this comment by Sandstein, I suggest that, if you can do so without violating any of your principles, you offer to milden your language. Cardamon (talk) 23:39, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Vysakh, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Masala (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Arbitration enforcement request

Just letting you know that a sanction has been proposed against you at Wikipedia:Arbitration enforcement. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 00:51, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Do not do this again, please

[1] does not help. The Sheldrake business has gone on for too long already, if you do that again you'll be going the way of barleybannocks. Guy (Help!) 10:37, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

I agree. It's not helpful. This is why I tell you to get a throwaway gmail account and email me. You can swear all you like and call all the trolls that are pissing you off names in an email to Uncle Barney, and he'll understand your need to vent. It also prevents you taking rash actions. Please do this. Barney the barney barney (talk) 11:10, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

For the record, here's the warning per the requirements of WP:AC/DS#Warnings, per the discussion at WP:AE:

The Arbitration Committee has permitted administrators to impose discretionary sanctions (information on which is at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions) on any editor who is active on pages broadly related to pseudoscience and fringe science. Discretionary sanctions can be used against an editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, satisfy any standard of behavior, or follow any normal editorial process. If you inappropriately edit pages relating to this topic, you may be placed under sanctions, which can include blocks, a revert limitation, or an article ban. The Committee's full decision can be read at the "Final decision" section of the decision page.

Please familiarise yourself with the information page at Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Discretionary sanctions, with the appropriate sections of Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee/Procedures, and with the case decision page before making any further edits to the pages in question. This notice is given by an uninvolved administrator and will be logged on the case decision, pursuant to the conditions of the Arbitration Committee's discretionary sanctions system.

In particular, please refrain from using coarse or impolite language on talk pages (such as the word "fucking" used for emphasis), because this is bad manners and can have the effect of intimidating your fellow editors, and do not insult the subjects of the articles you edit, per WP:BLP.  Sandstein  12:40, 20 December 2013 (UTC)

Kejriwal

I'm just about to request semi of the Kejriwal article again. We can't keep going on sifting through 50-100 crap contributions each day because those of us with clue don't have enough reverts between us.

Louis Joseph Posner, reliable sources, etc.

I noted your comment about the NY Post and it's questionable reliability as a source of contentious BLP information. I don't think it's cited for anything contentious in that article - just the facts of the episode - but that aside, I'm happy to turn to another source if it would be better. I'm not really up on the comparative (de)merits of the NY papers (other than the Times, which with I'm reasonably familiar) and so I don't know whether the Daily News is equally suspect. They covered the same thing as well but their coverage did not seem any more restrained to me. So I guess there are two questions: Can the Post be cited, reliably, for factual information such as details of a plea agreement, length and terms of probation, charges in a criminal case? And if not then is the Daily News preferable?

I have no interest in this subject, and no external knowledge other than what I'm reading; I came onto it only via WP:EAR, and am trying to make sure that the article - which has been extensively edited by a near-SPA and seems a bit of a whitewash - accurately reflects both the good and the bad about the subject. Your thoughts and comments are welcome. Thanks. JohnInDC (talk) 19:34, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

Requesting help

Hi TheRedPenOfDoom, I was just wondering if you get a chance, could you take a look at the article Athiyur? I have been trying to clean it up, but with no real luck as the changes seem to be added again. I just read the article and it now looks like a complete mess, with images and boxes randomly placed throughout among other problems clearly visible, and I don't know where to start. An editor there has already tried to get the article protected to stop me from editing his changes which included adding capital letters at the beginning of all words. Obviously another editor figured out the reason and denied the protection. There is also a matter of the editor insisting his blog is the official website and keeps re-adding it the infobox. You do great work cleaning up manual of style problems and such, so any help or advice on how to proceed would be appreciated. Thanks. Cmr08 (talk) 06:14, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

I have to say thanks, looks better already. From one of your edit summaries, "wow just wow", I'm guessing that was when you spotted the blinking welcome banner? That's the last think I expected to see in a Wikipedia article. Cmr08 (talk) 06:33, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

yep, that was something! -- TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom 06:37, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Mahabharat (2013) Episodes

We both agree on deletion and hence i thought it better to write here rather than there. But where does WP:NOT say that "daily aired" shows should not have their episode lists, but non-dailys can have them? The WP:NOTTVGUIDE part of the policy doesn't distinguish shows in such manner. It is completely based on the notability of the show and its episodes when considered singly. Or else we wouldn't have had anything in Category:Lists of television episodes. §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 12:59, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Treehouse attachment bolt

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Treehouse attachment bolt. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. You're already at 3RR. Don't blank or disrupt articles that are already at AfD. Especially not an AfD that you have no involvement in or respect for, you're merely going ahead with your usual deletion by increments already, despite any other consensus. Andy Dingley (talk) 13:51, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Wow you have a hard job.

I have been looking through your edits to get a sense for the work you do. I agreed with you every time. You posted on my user talk page and gave me pointers, and wanted more advise. I can see the necessary aggressiveness that is needed to keep the tone of Wikipedia correct, but I wanted help understanding why my perspective should be abandoned before I continued it or solicited help across the community. Since you do a lot of reverting, you might be in a position to either wave me off, or give me guidance. I would really rather be dissuaded or to persuade rather than get into the types of mini-wars that seem to follow good editors like you.
